We the undersigned call upon Her Majesty Government to support the workforce at Rio Tinto Alcan, Lynemouth. 626 directly employed workers who along with 320 contractors from 29 local businesses and over 3,000 workers in the supply chain stand to lose their jobs. This follows the announcement by Rio Tinto Alcan to close the Lynemouth site.
We call upon the Government to use whatever means possible to make Rio Tinto Alcan reverse its decision.
